| Posted by sketchydot, 02-11-2010, 09:31 PM | | Hi all,
I am desperately struggling, ive been trying for weeks to get my site, running on wordpress to be able to get clean urls.
I have a dedicated apache CentOS server.
now ive set the permalink structure as i want but it gives me the error
"If your .htaccess file were writable, we could do this automatically, but it isnt so these are the mod_rewrite rules you should have in your .htaccess file."
it tells me to add this..
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
done that, doesnt work!
My httpd.conf HAS mod_rewrite enabled i just cant figure out what to do!
can anyone help?
greatly apprciated

now, my server is returning two errors, not sure if they are connected but the log file is showing up these...
[client ::1] Directory index forbidden by Options directive: /var/www/html/
and
postdrop: warning: unable to look up public/pickup: No such file or directory
and

Second, make sure that your VHost or Apache configuration has: AllowOverride with a value like "all" or "AccessFileName" to have Apache pickup your .htaccess file.
